Focused on solving the major issues with
existing thematic ETFs: over concentration in mega-cap names and
underexposure to emerging leaders
Investors seeking exposure to the most disruptive trends poised
to reshape the markets, if not the world, in the decades to come
have a powerful new tool today as VistaShares has launched its
first ETF: the VistaShares Artificial Intelligence Supercycle ETF
(NYSE: AIS).
The fund is actively managed, and constructed around the firm’s
focus on Supercycles™: technology-driven trends that are spurring
disruption across a range of industries, and which are upending
everything from how we travel to how we work and even how we
think.
The fund has been designed with the help of leading technology
thought leaders to provide investors with robust exposure to the
full Supercycle™, namely the companies that are the “hidden gems”,
driving innovation and profits within their respective supply
chains. The fund follows a patent-pending, rules-based methodology
that underpins the core of the portfolio. Meanwhile, the
VistaShares Investment Committee is tasked with monitoring the
portfolio components, actively adding or removing companies to
ensure the ETF reflects the most up-to-date global ecosystem. The
approach is designed to provide investors with a rigorous,
transparent investment process, while benefiting from the deep
subject matter experience of industry thought leaders who have
helped shape these industries from their inception.
AIS, focused on the artificial intelligence supply chain,
emphasizes companies whose components are used to build A.I. data
centers and high performance A.I. semiconductors, not just
consumer-facing applications offered by the largest technology
companies in the world and likely already represented in investor
portfolios. This novel “bill of materials” approach to portfolio
construction is designed to provide exposure to the robust profit
pools of innovative, yet lesser-known growth companies around the
world.
“The case for thematic investing is obvious but to this point
investors have not been well served by the typical thematic ETF,
which is too often marked by overconcentration in the ‘big names’
tied to a particular trend and underexposure. Sometimes, investors
have no exposure to the companies that are fostering real
innovation, and which will be a themes’ driving force for decades
to come,” said Adam Patti, CEO of VistaShares. “It is well past
time to fix this problem in thematic investing and we’re thrilled
to be introducing AIS, bringing investors more robust access to
these Supercycles for the first time.”
As was shared in a news release on November 19th, VistaShares
has been built to leverage the visionary leadership of top industry
leaders who have personally powered the development and direction
of these Supercycle™ industries from their earliest days, and who
are now applying that knowledge to the firm’s ETFs.
In addition to Patti, who was the Founder & CEO of IndexIQ
and former Head of Global ETFs for New York Life Investment
Management, VistaShares is led by:
- Co-Founder Jon McNeill (co-founder, DVx Ventures, former
President of Tesla);
- Chief Investment Strategist Robert Whitelaw (former Chairman of
the Finance Department at NYU’s Stern School of Business and Dean
of the Undergraduate College);
- Advisor to the Investment Committee Sunny Madra (President of
Supply Chain, Operations, and Go-to-Market of Groq, and former CEO
of Definitive Intelligence);
- Strategic Advisor Dave Nadig, ETF industry luminary and
financial futurist.
“The approach VistaShares is taking to the ‘thematic’ space is
both novel and exciting,” said Nadig. “With rapidly evolving
technologies responding to an unpredictable world, tapping into the
human expertise behind each industry's growth is the only way to
ensure clear eyes on the future.”
“Today marks the first step towards our long-term goal of
building an ETF industry leader,” added McNeill. “Starting with
Artificial Intelligence, VistaShares has created a vehicle for
investors to truly reap the benefits of these innovative
Supercycles driving the next wave of growth across the globe, while
providing value for decades to come.”

Investors should consider the investment objectives, risks,
charges and expenses carefully before investing. For a prospectus
or summary prospectus with this and other information about the
Fund, please call (844) 875-2288. Read the prospectus or summary
prospectus carefully before investing.
Investing involves risk, including possible loss of
principal.
Artificial Intelligence Risk. Issuers engaged in
artificial intelligence typically have high research and capital
expenditures and, as a result, their profitability can vary widely,
if they are profitable at all. The space in which they are engaged
is highly competitive and issuers’ products and services may become
obsolete very quickly. These companies are heavily dependent on
intellectual property rights and may be adversely affected by loss
or impairment of those rights.
Equity Market Risk. Common stocks are generally exposed
to greater risk than other types of securities, such as preferred
stock and debt obligations, because common stockholders generally
have inferior rights to receive payment from specific issuers.
Technology Sector Risks. The Fund will invest
substantially in companies in the technology sector, and therefore
the performance of the Fund could be negatively impacted by events
affecting this sector. Market or economic factors impacting
technology companies and companies that rely heavily on
technological advances could have a significant effect on the value
of the Fund’s investments.
Foreign Securities Risk. Investments in securities or
other instruments of non-U.S. issuers involve certain risks not
involved in domestic investments and may experience more rapid and
extreme changes in value than investments in securities of U.S.
companies.
Index Strategy Risk. The Fund’s strategy is linked to an
Index maintained by the Index Provider that exercises complete
control over the Index.
New Fund Risk. The Fund is a recently organized
management investment company with no operating history. As a
result, prospective investors do not have an extensive track record
or history on which to base their investment decisions.
